MAKING SIDE COMMENTS: “WHISPERING”
Once you’re in a chat room, if you would like to send a comment to one person
without letting anyone else in the room see your comment, you can “whisper” to
that person.
To “whisper” to another person:
1 Starting from inside a chat room, select Whisper from the left side of the
screen, then press
OK or RETURN.
A list of the people in the chat room appears on the left side of the screen.
2 Select the person you want to whisper to.
3 Type your message in the box to the right.
4 Select Whisper message, then press OK or RETURN.
You can tell when someone whispers to you because their comment starts with
the words “to you.”
